Message-ID: <1d13e1b4.0302200006.70207b86@posting.google.com> (raw)
Small Ada question:
I need one function to accept
an array of unknown size of Boolean,
so I declare type and function:
type Tp is array (Positive range <>) of Boolean;
type Tp_Access is access all Tp;
function Fn (Arg : in Tp_Access) return Natural;
Now I try to call it with the constrained array:
declare
type TpCon is new Tp(1..1);
Arr : aliased TpCon;
begin
Arr(1) := True;
Res := Fn (Arr'Access);
end;
Compiler says on the invocation line:
expected type: Tp_Access defined at ...
found type TpCon defined at ...
I think that access to constrained
type should be convertible to access
to unconstrained type.
So where I am going wrong here ?
Thanx,
George
